Chapter on the Detailed Explanation of Prayer, Including the Obligatory and Recommended, and What is Permissible and Not Permissible.
وَ عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ اِبْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ قَضَاءِ صَلاَةِ اَللَّيْلِ فَقَالَ «اِقْضِهَا فِي وَقْتِهَا اَلَّذِي صَلَّيْتَ فِيهِ» قَالَ قُلْتُ يَكُونُ وَتْرَانِ فِي لَيْلَةٍ قَالَ« لَيْسَ هُوَ وَتْرَانِ فِي لَيْلَةٍ أَحَدُهُمَا لِمَا فَاتَكَ»
And from him, from al-Hasan ibn Ali, from Ibn Bukayr, from Zurarah, who said:
I asked Abu Ja’far عليه السلام about making up the night prayer (‘salat al-layl’). Imam عليه السلام said: "Make it up at the same time in which you used to perform it." I asked: “Will there be two ‘witr’ prayers in one night?” Imam عليه السلام said: "It is not considered two ‘witrs’ in one night, one of them is for what you missed."
